[03:23] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> not super sure which channel to ask this, but is it a known issue to have problems with Humongous Entertainment game saves? The Save Game icons always direct to the Load Game and crash the game when exited
[03:27] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> i get the pop-up "Failed to load saved game from file:
[03:27] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> pajama2-win-us-temp.sgl" when trying to leave the Load Game screen, too, followed by "Error reading savegame (Disk full?)" and then a game crash. not sure if i'm missing a step towards proper game saving

[12:21] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> Yes that was my ticket, I did update to the nightly build, but the issue persists.
[12:21] <grogbot> [discord] <bosca_bo> Does it happen on PC?
[12:21] <grogbot> [discord] <bosca_bo> Also, which version of Pajama Sam 2 is that?
[12:23] <grogbot> [discord] <bosca_bo> Because on PC both pressing S and using the "Save" button on the botton left mouse interface works correctly
[12:51] <-- JamminUnit left irc: Quit: leaving
[13:00] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> It's the regular CD windows version, and i'll get a similar message for each game with slight changes in file extension type (Spy Fox 2 says "Failed to load saved game from file: spyfox2-win-us-SPY Fox 2.sg1" "Error reading savegame 861114398 - terminating game (Disk full?))
[13:03] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> or "Failed to load saved game from file:
[13:03] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> spyfox2-win-us-temp.sgL"
[13:04] <grogbot> [discord] <bosca_bo> I see. But does it happen on pc?
[13:05] <grogbot> [discord] <bosca_bo> Or mac, or anything which is not a Wii
[13:06] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> using a mac atm, downloading the dmg and I'll let you know asap
[13:08] --> JamminUnit joined #scummvm.
[13:14] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> Issue isn't replicable on Mac OS version of the games, saves and load normally
[13:16] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> crashed scummvm itself on the Wii to see if any error details would show up and some did involving the HE games

[13:22] <grogbot> [discord] <bosca_bo> This seems a Wii specific issue... @kebabounet would you happen to know if something has happened there by any chance?

[14:33] <grogbot> [discord] <dwa> you mean, CPU-wise (aka big-endian)? No, not seeing this particular issue on my usual PPC machines
[14:33] <grogbot> [discord] <dwa> maybe the issue is backend related? Makes me think of https://bugs.scummvm.org/ticket/14747 on Haiku a bit
[14:34] <grogbot> [discord] <bosca_bo> Hmm, thanks for confirming, so this is either a Wii problem or a config issue
[14:35] <grogbot> [discord] <dwa> (i.e. some POSIXSaveFileManager() limitation on Wii or something? DOTT had a similar crash on Haiku so&)

[17:41] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> Could it also be a save game path issue on my part? I don't know anything about coding, but I intuitively feel like it's having this problem when it tries to return to the temporary held save after entering a menu that opens up all save/load paths.
[17:42] <grogbot> [discord] <calmbucha> Especially since it claims "sg# does not exist" on the scummvm error screen

[18:30] <grogbot> [discord] <dwa> well, it's been some time since I've looked into the Wii port, but if you have a way of seeing what its `scummvm.ini` file looks like (if you can read that storage elsewhere), and see if any `savepath` value is defined in it
[18:31] <grogbot> [discord] <dwa> I don't know who currently has the most knowledge about the internals of the Wii port

[22:17] <grogbot> [discord] <gu3> @mduggan do you know if the "Countdown" uses the same "access" engine ? http://mobygames.com/game/1978/countdown/
[22:39] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> According to previous notes by JohnDoe, who did a partial disassembly and engine work years back on Noctrpolis but abandoned it.. Games to be supported by this engine (in order of priority):
[22:39] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> Noctropolis
[22:39] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> Martian Memorandum (MM)
[22:39] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> Amazon (same as MM without the hardcoded parts)
[22:39] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> Countdown (hardcoded - but easy - scripts)
[22:41] <grogbot> [discord] <dreammaster> We do have a disassembly for Countdown, so mduggan could potentially look at either Noctropolis or Countdown if he's so inclined
[22:53] <grogbot> [discord] <gu3> The game also looks very much like Marian Memorandum
